Ah, a classic problem! Cats are known for being curious and playful, and they often find Christmas trees irresistible. Here are a few tips to help keep your cat away from the tree: 1) Place a few foil-wrapped packages or small jingle bells near the base of the tree to create a distracting sound. 2) Consider using a pet-safe deterrent spray that will discourage your cat from approaching the tree. 3) If your cat is still persistent, you can try gently redirecting their attention to a different activity or toy.
